Plague Odd

from Raise The Lower'd by Karl Blau

Fanship Freshwater exclusive

lyrics

Go low and outside, catch this ball of fire
So low - the southside - down to call the shots
So low - you drop below and freeze cause Simon said
Oh no - you don't know what you know as the goin gets good and went

So Bro, the first time you held the hour glass
Hollow it must feel - dig up all the past
In toe - the shadow's held in chains that cannot bind
No, no, the notion knows it needs a stitch in time

Sneaking into your end zone
You didn't see me til I crossed the line
Points are all but on the board and the ref is feelin' fine
Better wake up, surely, here's a cup of ice tea splash in yer face
Shoulda seen this comin' bout a mile away
But you're on the field - doesn't that mean you're here to play

If I could just play god - plague odd, plague odd
I would just say god, play, god, play, god

Hard blow - I can tell the pain left in your eyes
For show - can't help itself, stare into the clouds
Big toe - planted on the line til the moment that he whistled the blues
Eat crow - in fields of corn while the buzzards carry off the scarecrow

Sneaking into your end zone
You didn't see me til I crossed the line
Points are all but on the board and the ref is feelin' fine
Better wake up, surely, here's a cup of ice tea splash in yer face
Shoulda seen this comin' bout a mile away
But you're on the field - doesn't that mean you're here to play

If I could just plague odd - play god, play god
I would just say god, plague odd, plague odd

(play nice)

Karl Blau Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

These records are all over the place. My latest studio record Love & Harm consists of a modern country rock sound featuring the pedal steel of Jon Hyde (Introducing) and amazing players you'd recognize from playing on stage with me. Living in Germantown, Philadlephia, started a recording project called Opal Eskar, check that out too. ... more
